Did your Dr tell you No STRAWS? No SODA?
arringtonc49 replied to Fibro Queen's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I was told NO soda forever and wait until a year to drink thru straw. Your stomach can be stretched with theses things. I am 8 months post op and no problems at all. At my goal weight and below. I don't miss soda nor straw. I came too far to mess things up. I love who I have become and feel Great!!!! Sent from my D6708 using BariatricPal mobile app -

Everyone: What was your turning point in your life that made you decide the wls route?
arringtonc49 replied to xoxococojay's topic in General Weight Loss Surgery Discussions
My turning point for wls was my health. My ac1 was climbing higher, my cholesterol was getting higher,my blood pressure was getting higher and I had to be put on meds for these ailments. I had knee replacement on one knee and was told I need it on other knee. I am 7 months post surgery and list 85 lbs. I am at my goal weight. Started at 220 lbs and now at 135lbs and still losing weight. I had blood work done and everything is normal. No more meds!!! My knees feel great!!! No surgery needed. I am so Happy I made this decision [emoji23]! Sent from my D6708 using BariatricPal mobile app -

Semara I am right along with you. I am 4 months post op and lost 70 lbs with 15 mire to reach my goal. My weigh loss has slowed down. I stayed the same weight over a week now. I go to gym 4-5 days a week. It has done this before and than the scale moves again. I try to up my water intake and protein. I notice that's when the scale moves.

Is anyone having a hard time dealing with all of the new attention? I'm 6 months out.
arringtonc49 replied to lisaBme's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
I lost 65 lbs since Surgery in MARCH 2017. I don't mind the attention sometimes. And sometimes it bothers me because I had Co workers tell me I am getting too skinny. Well what is too skinny? I've not even hit my goal weight. I was told some people are jealous. That is what I don't like. Don't be jealous ; just be happy for me. Sent from my D6708 using BariatricPal mobile app
